"Throwing" molten glass on the wheel

I often joke, “This is not something I would do in front of my mother.”   In all reality, any liquid hit with the physics of centrifugal force will thin the material as it widens.  Molten materials are no different.  With the vast experience in extreme heat and the safety required with it, I have used molten aluminum, bronze, and glass on my every-day pottery wheels.  After many trials between friends and myself, I have found there is truly incredible potential.  Glass and bronze sinks spun on the wheel are his future ambitions with this process.
